Bullaun

Okay kiddo, have you ever seen a big rock with a hole in it or a hollow spot on top? That's called a bullaun.

Long time ago, people used to worship outside and they needed a place to put certain things. So they found these big rocks with hollow spots, and they put special things in them. Sometimes they would put holy water or items like crosses in this rock.

People around Ireland and some parts of Europe still use these rocks for ceremonies and prayers. They say it helps them feel closer to their faith. It's like having a special place to put your favorite toy or item that makes you feel happy and safe.

So, in short, a bullaun is a special rock with a hole in it that people use for religious purposes.
